Okay, not introduction because I'm writing this even before my new beta reader Son of the specter, has given me a review on chapter 5

Star Wars Galaxies (the mmorpg)
"You ready?" a tech asked Nick. He was in a standard x-wing jumpsuit, about to get into a modified TIE advanced. It had been modified so that it would received extra shielding from the space station Belt Runner 1, so that he could run the asteroid belt without getting crushed to death. He also was a bit nervous about stepping into the cockpit, because joining him would be a Ysalmiri, a creature that t had developed an "Anti-Force" bubble to protect itself from predators that used the force to hunt. Doing that would strip Nick of all his powers, and take his precognition away, leaving just his skill as a pilot to get him through. He had made a bet with Lando Calrissan that he could do an hour run in the belt, twice the record time held by Jaina Solo, who had only been beaten by Kyp Durrant once, and just by a second, and they both had been able to call on the force. If he lost, he would have to break the Jedi Code, and use his skills in the Force to cheat and win at Sabbacc. If he did that, he would have his rank as Jedi master stripped from him, as well as not being allowed to practice the ways of the Force.
"Lando, do you hear me?" He said, stepping in and flicking the comm on.
"Loud and clear. You know the rules, no flying backwards, no firing the weapons, and to mini-hyperspace jumps."
"Got it. I'm taking off now." Nick turned off the repulsors on the TIE and turned on the sublight engines, and left the hangar.
"Okay, you're cleared for entry." Nick flew close to the belt, not entering it but letting a few asteroids bounce off the shielding, getting a feel for the reaction. He then put the TIE into a sharp barrel roll, stopping right in the middle of the belt, almost clipping an asteroid moving fast enough to almost knock him out of the belt.

"I hope he'll be all right." Holly said, looking out the VIP lounge's view-ports, tracking Nick's progress. She had chosen to appear as a human female, dressed in tight fitting black cloth, with a matching cape
He'll be fine, as long as he doesn't get distracted, or decided to eat something Sarge growled. He had chosen to appear as a Wookie, with twin bandoliers slung across his chest.
"Master Sarge wishes to say that Nick will be all right as long as he doesn't get distracted" Nick's platinum protocol droid K-5PO.
"I have complete confidence in Nick." Sean said. He had chosen to be a Chiss, a blue skinned, red-eyed humanoid that were native to the unknown regions of the galaxy.
"Ah, you guy's have too much confidence. He's going in there without the Force" Lando said, walking.
"WHAT?" Sean and Holly shouted. Sarge roared.
'It was part of the bet. The Falcon II is a very nice ship." He said, trying to talk despite the fact that Sarge was trying to strangle him.
GIVE HIM HIS FORCE BACK Sarge yelled into his face.
"It's okay guys, don't worry. I'm okay! Don't kill Lando." Nick's voice came over the speakers. "I wanted to do it without the Force. Otherwise I could just move the asteroids out of the way."
"Really?" Holly said, rushing over to the comm that she had been given and pressing the transmit button.
"Yeah. Now, if you'll let me get back to my flying, I'll win us a ship." Nick was doing very well in the belt, having not even clipped an asteroid yet.

Real WorldA brown haired teen, about average height walked off the plane in the Point Beach airport. "You're sure you know he's here?" He asked his Navi.
"Yes." His Navi, Sorcerer, was of normal height for a navi. He had a black and purple body, a purple cape, and a medallion that had four lighting bolts emanating from the center of it.
"Well, then, we must find him."
"My spy says that he and his navi are located in the net, in an area that has been used for an online game

"Hey, HB, have you gotten the nanoassembler to work yet?" Nikolai asked. He had gotten into Nick's lab and stolen the plans for it, and was now sitting in front of the computer bank, trying to decrypt the data from Nick's lab, as well as keeping an eye on how his Navi was preparing for his encounter with Nick in the game that he was trapped in.
"Uh… Not really…" HB said. He was constructing the assembler so that it was three times the size of hit, "It would help if Josh was here."
"He's sleeping, and you know he doesn't like to be bothered."
"GET AWAY FROM ME YOU CRAZY BITCH!" Josh yelled, running into the room. He was wearing a hastily thrown on robe, and his nose was bleeding.
"Oh come on, you know you want me." Courtney said, walking in, wearing nothing but her underwear. HB turned very red, and started snickering into the half assembled nanoassembler.
"No, I don't! You're Nikolai's girlfriend! Get off me!" Josh shouted, backing away from the ever-advancing Courtney.
"Yes, put something decent on. You're distracting me." Nikolai said.
"What, this isn't decent?" She pouted, draping herself on Nikolai's lap, "I'm hurt."
"I'll find and/or steal something expensive for you later." He said. Courtney got off his lap, and walked out.
"You need to get her under control." Josh said, adjusting his robe, "That's the second time I've woken up to find her-"
"T M I, dude," HB said, "Now come over here and help me with the nanoassembler. Nikolai wants at least a hundred pounds of nanobots by next Friday."
"But that's like, only w week and a half away!" Josh said, sitting down. " You have the power routing through the wrong conduit."
"Oh. Thanks." HB said, gabbing pliers and fixing it.

Star Wars Galaxies"Only like, a minute left." Sean said, glancing at his watch.
"Yay! We get a ship!" Holly said, jumping up and down.
"And not just any ship, young lady, a complete replica of the Millennium Falcon." Lando added. He was watching Nick, amazed at the skill Nick had. He had almost been knocked out of the field twice, but had managed to recover.
"Wow!"
"Hey, Lando, what's that?" Sean said, pointing to a strange looking craft. It was a bright shade of red, and it loved almost like a larger version of a clone-wars era V-wing.
"I don't know. Techs, can you get me a model number on that ship, it's getting to close to the belt for my liking." Lando said, grabbing his comm and speaking in to it. Just as he said this, Nick's voice crackled over the comm.
"-Weapons are – comm's jammed-" they all heard through the static."
"Shit! They're jamming all com frequencies." Lando said, as the ship fired a turbolaser shot straight at Nick, who avoided it narrowly, but diving out of the belt.
"Sir! That ship is a pre-clone war ship. It was used by a sith called… Darth Maul." A tech said over a speaker that was hardwired throughout the station, in case of comm jamming.
"Damn it!" Lando said, "Do we have any ships large enough to pick up Nick?"
"No sir, but the shielding he has will provide him with at least three direct hits, maybe more, depending on when he gets hit."
"Great." Lando disconnected the call, and looked at them. "I really didn't know this could happen."
"That's okay." Sean said, looking out at Nick, "He'll get through."

"Shitshitshitshit" Nick said, not taking a breath. He had hidden on an asteroid, docking on it so that he couldn't be seen. He knew that it had to be Nikolai or his navi piloting his ship, and in the TIE, he knew he had no chance. He thumbed the comm, getting nothing but static. "Guy's I'm going to jump to hyperspace. I'm okay, don't be worried. This has enough oxygen that if I go into a Jedi trance, I can last months." Then he remembered the Ysalmiri. "Shit." He said, carefully activating one of his lightsabers. "I'm sorry." He whispered to the animal, gently pushing the glowing gold blade into its skull, killing it instantly. He pulled the blade out slowly, so that there was no blood coming out of the cut. He activated the repulsors, and took off, and then he started up the hyperdrive and watched as the stars turned into while lines.

"He jumped to hyperspace!" Holly gasped, as Nick's ship disappeared.
"Yeah, all of the TIEs are outfitted with hyperdrives." Lando said
"Did you get an idea on where he may be headed?" Sean said.
"No, but I'm pretty sure Nick's going to be back." As soon as he said this, the Sith ship turned and went to hyperspace, probably to hunt Nick down.
0 0 0
Nick reverted back into regular space in the middle of nowhere, hoping that the Sith ship wouldn't be able to track him. He knew that the pilot was probably force sensitive, and he was only biding his time.
"Now what?" He asked Modman.
"I don't know, why not go back?" Modman said, using the full synchro to take control of Nick's voice.
"No, because then the ship would probably attack the base." Only moderately larger than the Millennium Falcon, it had enough firepower to go against a Star Destroyer, and win.
"Yeah, I guess so. Where are we going to go, then?"
"I have no idea." As he said this, a laser blast rocked his ship.
"Nick and Modman, pilots of the modified TIE advanced, surrender and prepare to be captured." A voice crackled over the comm.
"Who is this speaking?" Nick asked, starting the sublight engines on the TIE.
"I am Morpha. I am Nikolai's navi," the voice sounded watery.
"Yes, I'm sorry, but I can't do that." Nick linked all four of his lasers and fired straight at the cockpit of the fighter.
"Ack!" a voice came over the comm. Nick shut it off, putting full power into the speed of the TIE, trying to out run the fighter, all the while avoiding the turbolaser blasts. Out here, away from the projected shields, one hit would mean history. Then a laser blast hit him, tearing off the right wing of the TIE, stranding Nick. The Sith ship lined up its laser cannons, preparing for a final blow.
"Any last words?" Morpha said over the comm.
"They won't be his last." A new voice interrupted, as a turbolaser blast hit the ship amidships, completely destroying the shields. Nick turned the TIE around, looking at the Blockade Runner that had come out of hyperspace seconds before.
"Thanks unknown blockade runner."
"The ship's name is Tantive X, and my name's Anthony. You must be Nick, I presume?"
"Yes… how did you know I was here?"
"I was tracking Morpha. I have a… history with Josh, and Morpha was broadcasting a signal that Josh puts into all the navis he creates."
"Well thanks."
"No problem. If you want to dock, I can take you back to where you came from."
"Thanks." Nick said, letting the TIE be pulled into the hangar of the blockade-runner by a tractor beam.

As Nick and Anthony disembarked from the shuttle that had taken them to Belt Runner 1, Sean, Holly, Sarge and Lando stepped out of the repusorlift.
"Oh my gosh! You're okay!" Holly said, running up and hugging Nick.
"Yes. You beat the bet by ten seconds!" Lando said, walking up, "I would like to give you the ship, as well as compensation for what happened…"
"I'll just take a million credits."
"That's a lot less than what I was going to give you."
"Keep the rest as your holiday bonus." Nick said, shaking Lando's hand. "Guys, I'd like you to meet Anthony. He's an enemy of Josh's."
"Well, I wouldn't say that," Anthony started.
"I want to go see the Falcon 2!" Holly interrupted.
"Fine, let's go."

Real World"DAMN IT!!" Nikolai shouted, banging his fist on the computer keyboard, as he watched Morpha get hit with the turbolaser blast. "Morpha, head back to Dracon, and make the repairs on the ship. Now that Nick knows who you are, he's going to go to you."
"Yes sir."
"Contact me later when you have an update." Nikolai perceived someone standing behind him.
"Uh… sir?" Josh said, fidgeting.
"Yes?"
"Could I have some time off? There's this girl I like, and she lives nearby…"
"I understand. I'll have Courtney drive you over-"
"NO! I-I mean, no, I'd prefer to ride my bike."
"Why?"
"Jo-osh…" Courtney called out from the other side of the room. She was wearing a very revealing shirt, and an extremely short skirt. "Can you help me? I think I broke my vacuum."
"I see… yes, you can have a few hours off to go and visit" Nikolai said, putting a sarcastic spin of visit.

A white haired girl was in her room drawing an elaborate spork. "Comment tu sais?" She said in French, holding up the drawing at her Navi.
"C'est trés bon, Emelie." Her navi, Bolt, responded. Bolt was an orange anthropomorphic cat with angel wings and caring a large spork as a staff.
"Merci, Bolt." There was a knock at the door.
"Qui est-ce?" She said, opening the door. Josh was standing there.
"Bonjour. Je m'appel Josh, et je vais a l'ecole avec toi…"
"Tu parle français? Qu'est que tu es de?"
"Yeah." Josh said, completely not understanding her.
"You don't speak French," Emelie said, in accented English.
"I sorry. I don't, but, uh would you uh," Josh said sheepishly
"Yes?"
"Happen to have the calculus homework." Paladin said, before Josh could burst into flames of awkwardness and embarrassment.
"Yes, would you happen to have the calculus homework?" Josh said, in a stronger voice.
"Bolt? Qu'est-ce que le devoir de calculus?" She yelled into the room, asking Bolt.
"It was pages 122-124 her navi responded
"Uh, thanks." Josh said, turning and walking away. Emelie closed the door.
"Quel étrange." She said to Bolt.
"D'accord."

Star Wars Galaxies"Oh, my god! This is so sweet!" Holly yelled, running up to the Falcon II to touch it. Instead of the normal gray color of YT-1300's, this one was dark black.
"Why'd you paint it black?" Nick said, stopping and asking Lando.
"Eh, I added a few modifications that made it a stealth ship, and any other color would have it stand out like a nerf on a space station.
"Yeah, you're right."
"So, do you want to take it now, or do you want to add some modifications? May I say that Belt Runner 1 has some of the fastest, most efficient tech crews this side of the-"
"Yeah, I would. Can you add a mine launcher instead of the escape pod, a battery of concussion missiles in the front cargo hold, and stock it with enough rations to last at least a month for four people."
"And where shall I put the food?" Lando said. He was holding a flexi, a computer that could be hardened so that it was stiff as a board, or made loose like a sheet of paper so that it could be folded and stored.
"In the smuggler's compartments.
"Now, why would I have smugglers compartments? I run a respectable ship!" Lando said. Nick stared at him, "Fine, I'll put the stuff in them."
"Thanks.' Nick said, walking over to Anthony.
"So, where are you? In real life, that is." He asked Anthony
"I am about a half an hour away from the Greene School, where Josh attends."
"He goes there? That's weird. I haven't seen him."
"He goes off campus a lot."
"Ok. So, do you know where Josh is?"
"No, do you?"
"Yeah, I do. Do you think you can break in and break us out?"
"What?" Anthony looked confused.
"Well, we obviously aren't in this on our own will."
"Oh! Well, I guess I could. But you guys are most likely in Pulse Transmission Systems…"
'We are, yes, but most likely they are kept in a locked room that isn't monitored."
"Yeah. What I'm trying to put together is why Josh would do this."
"Josh isn't. Here, I'll explain it to you." Nick and Anthony walked off, talking
"What's that about?" Holly asked, watching the two guys walking off.
"Probably Nick is explaining to Anthony what the deal is." Sean responded, "So what's so special about the Falcon?"
"Why, it's the fastest ship in the universe."
"Really? How fast?"
"Hm…in real life terms, it could go from the sun to Cerberus in about a year.
"Wow!"
"So, do you want to go and check out the ship?"
"Sure, I guess."
"I can show you how to fly it." Holly said, gabbing Sean's hand and dragging him into the ship.

Real World"So, how'd it go?" Nikolai asked as Josh stormed into the hideout.
"I got tonight's calculus homework." He muttered, and sat down at a computer that seemed to be isolated from everything else. "Where are Elizabeth and Sunyama?"
"Sunyama got arrested for tipping free cokes out of vending machines"
"And Elizabeth?"
"Courtney scared her off."
"Hey! She came on to me! I just went along with it" Courtney yelled from the other side of the room, looking up from a fastion magazine.
"Then why'd she leave?" Courtney walked out of the room, throwing down her magazine.
"Any progress?" Josh asked, nodding at one of the screens.
"Well, we've tracked him into the graveyard, and he's stayed there since."
"Do we have any idea how strong he is?"
"All my scouts have not returned."
" Hm… what about the attempts at summoning the Gospel Beast?"
"We've gotten responses."
"Really?"
"Yes, but we need the second part."
"Yes… I think I can get him. Allow me a few minutes, and although I won't like it, get me Courtney."
"Okay." Nikolai pressed a button on his chair (imagine Dr. Evil's chair from Goldmember) and after a minute Courtney walked in.
"Is it time for us again?" She said, walking in and seeing Josh, "ooh, Josh too. Kinky."
"Uhh… I don't need you for that." Nikolai said adding "ever" under his breath," You and Josh need to Jack in and head to the Graveyard."
"Okay, but I wouldn't mind-"
"Jack in, Paladin" Josh said, cutting of Courtney just in time to allow me to keep this fic rating as T.
"Fine. Jack in, Mimic."
0 0 0
"So where are we headed?" Mimic said. He had taken the form of a white droid with a head that was larger than his body, and green triangular eyes (A.K.A. Marvin from the HGTTG movie)
"The Graveyard." Paladin said, adjusting his sheaths
"Oh, great. Just what I need, to hang around dead people. Maybe I'll join them."
"Shut up, Mimic, and take a different form. You're starting to get annoying." Mimic shifted his shape into Sorcerer. "Next."
"I don't know, I like this form. It's very appealing" Mimic said, looking at himself to make sure he got everything right.
"Seriously, next form. Something intimidating, maybe."
"Hmm… How about this?" Mimic said, changing into an octopus/spider/alien combination.
"Uh…disturbing, and I guess that'll do." Paladin said, turning away from Mimic. "Let's go." They stepped on the link to the net, and made their way from Undernet 2 to Undernet 3, and stopped before the entrance to the Graveyard.
"Okay, you two need to get ready for a big fight." Josh said, getting the battlechips that he needed. "Paladin, you still have those bugfrags, right?"
"All 1,230,605 of them" Paladin counted off. "But they're all stored in the iso-computer."
"I know. Here's five of them," Josh said, downloading them in front of Paladin. "Use these as bait" Paladin and Mimic entered the Graveyard.
"Uh, Josh, I don't think I'll need these." The Graveyard was in a state of disarray; with broken tombstones scattered around and deep scratch marks in the floor. Sleeping in the middle of the area was Gregor.
"So, what do you want to do, attack him and beat him into a stupor, or go for stealth."
" Don't think a sneak attack will do anything." Paladin said, unsheathing his broadsword and dashing up to Gregor, slashing him across the side, to no effect.
"Hmm…. That's odd." Paladin said.
"He's got an invisible aura," Mimic reported. "I doubt you'll be able to do anything." He then shifted his shape to Falzar and shrieked. Gregor instantly woke up and instantly fired a blast off at Mimic, who shape shifted into a Mettaur to avoid the attack, dropping out of range.
"Josh, give me five Rope3 chips, and do the same for Mimic." Josh and Courtney immediately did what they were told, and a myriad of vines entangled Gregor.
"Here's a dark aura chip." Josh said, slotting one in as Gregor started to break free.
"Hmm… Josh, can you just send me the data?" Paladin said, grabbing what looked to be a metal football off of his belt and tinkering with it.
"Yeah… here you go." The data floated in front of Paladin, who grabbed it and shoved it into the device, throwing it over the trapped beast. As it was flying directly over Gregor, the chip data in it activated, trapping Gregor in an aura.
"So what did you do?" Mimic asked.
"I modified the chip so that it reflects any attacks done on the inside back on the attacker, and also it will shrink on command, becoming a rigid bubble. As he said this Gregor unleashed a mighty energy blast, which hit the wall of the shield and bounced off, hitting him. "See?" Paladin hit a button, and the aura shrunk until it was extremely tight, taking on Gregor's form, not allowing him to move.
"Great. Now help me move him." Paladin said.
"Just let me shift forms." Mimic said, changing into a Gutsman shape that was five times the original size and picking Gregor up and slinging it over one shoulder. "Ready." They made their way back to the homepage.

"And as I told you before, that's why I won't have sex with you." Josh was explaining to Courtney
"Ooh, so that's why you yelled and ran out of the room those times…"
"Why else would you think I did it?"
"You could've been, like, afraid of a spider on the ceiling or something." Courtney said, to Josh's frustration, when Paladin yelled from the computer
"Josh, I need some storage space, and soon. Gregor is starting to weaken the aura's strength."
"Okay, I've got it." Josh said, leaning over to plug a 500gig portable hard drive into the computer. "Start the download."

"Hm… that's weird." Vic murmured to himself. The sneakernet had just undergone a major shift, one that he had never seen the likes of before. "Someone must be downloading a crapload of data."
0 0 0
"Wow, I'm surprised that fit!" Josh said, looking at the hard-drive. It had taken 499 gigs just to store Gregor. "Megaman must've been some navi, to completely absorb this beast." He got up and walked over to the isolated computer. He plugged in the hard drive, and downloaded Gregor on to it.
"Mimic, would you like to do the translating?" Josh asked Mimic, who immediately shifted into Gregor in Courtney's PET. He roared at the actual Gregor, who roared back.
"Okay, so, I told him that he wasn't going to be harmed, but we were only going to make him stronger, and he said 'what's the catch?'"
"Tell him the truth." Nikolai said. Mimic roared, and added a series of barks and whines. Gregor barked, and lay down, staring patiently out the screen.
"He's okay with it. He says the one condition, though, is that he retains his memories, and he has all the humans and navis he wants to devour"
"Tell him if we get that far, he can do whatever he wants, as long as I okay it."

Star Wars Galaxies"Concentrate, open your mind." Nick said to Holly. He was trying to train her in the ways of the Force, with Sean watching. Sarge was in the cockpit, due to the fact that he was a natural pilot. Nick had left K-5PO in the cockpit as well. Just in case.
"I'm trying she said, trying to get the ball she was holding in her hand to rise.
"Just imagine the ball lifting itself, and feel the force that it would take you to lift it."
"C'mon, up!" Holly said to herself. The ball jumped up and imbedded itself in the ceiling, sticking there beside about five others.
"Once more, with less feeling." Nick said, handing her another one.
"Okay… Clear my mind, sense it with our my senses, lift with my mind…" Holly said. The ball in her hand started to float. "Yes!" she then made it do circles around her head, before making it return to her hand.
"Oh! Now I see!" Nick said, "You see the Force in action, and can imitate it better than just trying to do it yourself."
"So I copy the Force abilities?"
"No, you just learn Force visually."
"Oh… show me something really cool." Holly said.
"Okay, the reverse of lifting." Nick said, using the force to pull one of the metal balls stuck in the ceiling. Holly watched this, and then closed her eyes and pulled all of the other balls down.
"Sweet!" She said, opening her eyes.
"Yes, and now to tune your precognition skills." Nick said, grabbing an old flight helmet and a small, metal droid. 'This droid-"
"Will hover around me, shooting low powered laser bolts at me, while I try to deflect them with a lightsaber, while blinded. I saw the movies, you know."
"Sorry, keep on forgetting that." Nick muttered. Holly activated one of Nick's lightsabers. This one was a teal blue, unlike the gold one Nick had used in the TIE fighter. She closed the helmet so that it blocked her eyes. Nick activated the droid, and it started flying in circles around Holly.
"So where are we headed to?" Sean asked, as Anthony walked in.
"Back to Courisant, where I was logged in." he said.
"Yeah, and that way I can also visit the old Jedi Temple." Nick said, "There's something I wanted to check in the archives." As he said this, the ship shuddered.
"Hmm… We can't be reverting to realspace yet." Anthony said, "I'll go up and check." He quickly walked out of the room, towards the cabin, not making it very far before the ship jerked violently.
"That was a laser blast!" Nick said, running up to the cockpit. Looking out the viewport, he saw masses of red and blue colored ships fighting. "Shit!"
"Where are we?" Holly asked walking in.
"We're in an area that's source code got cracked." Nick said, "And people used it to make it a giant team battlefield. We got pulled out because of the interdiction field projected by that ship," He said, pointing to a blue ship. "Sarge, you go take the top quadguns. Holly, or Sean, would one of you guys take the bottom ones?"
"Dibs!" Holly yelled, running out of the cockpit and almost knocking over Sarge.
"Anthony, I need you to help me pilot. There are the weapon controls, and there are the stealth controls. I think we're going to have to fight our way through."
"Okay, " Anthony said, taking the co-pilots seat.
Holly's voice crackled over the comm. "I'm all set to go." Sarge roared his agreements
"K-5PO, go and see if you can find somewhere to strap yourself down," Nick said, flicking a switch that lit a red light directly above it. He then grabbed the controls of the stationary Falcon II and put al power to the shields, while running the engines at 90. Immediately the ships cloaking device shut down, revealing it to all the ships. The comm crackled to life
"Hey! Teams!"
"Teams are fine!"
"Asswipe! You have five more ships!"
"Oh yea? You noobs have an Interdictor Cruiser"
"Only because we don't want you yellow bastards to run like the idiots you are"
"We don't run! We strategically retreat to marshal our forces to own you guys" Nick dialed down the comm's volume.
"Sorry about that." He said, looking over at Anthony. "It's like that all the time out here." He put the ship into a roll and someone shot a blue ship down. Nick flew his way through the fighting teams, and managed to get close to the Interdictor. "Anthony, how many concussion missiles do we have? Anthony glanced at the weapons array.
"Forty, sir."
"Prepare to fire all of them as soon as we get pulled in."
"What?"
"Common strategy with Interdictors is that they'll pull you into a hangar bay, force open a hatch on the ship, and depressurize the hangar." As he said this, the ship jumped forwards slightly and started to be pulled towards an open hangar. Anthony took this as his queue and fired thirty of the forty missiles, as well as two of the ten proton torpedoes. They flew into the hangar, followed by a brilliant flash as they exploded. The tractor beam suddenly released its hold on the ship, as a series of explosions radiated out from the hangar bay.
"Dude! Awesome! You just got owned! Owned!" One of the red shouted over the comm loud enough that is was heard.
"Let's get out of here." Nick said, flying through the remains of the now destroyed ship, jumping to hyperspace.

Real World"Josh, I'm at the door." Paladin said. He had made his way through the sneakernet and was standing in front of the door that led to Wily.
"Good." Nikolai dialed his phone.
"Hello?" Vic answered.
"Hey Vic, it's me, Nick. I was wondering if you'd open the door to Wily."
"Okay dude, it's already done." The door in front of Paladin made a clunking noise. Paladin grabbed it and swung it open.
"Lord Wily." He said, getting down on one knee and bowing his head.
"Who are you?" Wily said, grabbing his cane and standing up.
"I am here to free you." Paladin said, standing up and helping Wily.
"What do you need me for?"
"We need you to continue your work."
"How so?"
"We want you to help us create a program."
"That does what?"
"Why, that would be telling."
